A cheaply bought Crystal Ocean filly who showed clear ability when third of 12 in bumper at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) on debut in December, finishing well. Has since left Richard Bandey and has achieved the most of those with experience.

Age: 4|  Weight: 11-2| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie SnowdenWS
Half-sister to German 2-y-o 7f winner Elle (by Areion): dam, useful German 11f winner (stayed 15f). Held back by inexperience when second in juvenile hurdle at Warwick on her debut in November. Switches to a bumper now and clearly thought capable of better.

Timeform
Sans Frontieres filly. Dam runner-up in bumper out of half-sister to smart hurdler/winning 25f chaser William Henry and useful Flat stayer Sesenta, from family of smart staying hurdler Strangely Brown.
Timeform
Nathaniel filly. Dam bumper/fairly useful 2m hurdler, from family of useful hurdler/chaser up to 2¾m Damut.
Timeform
Masked Marvel filly who is bred to make a useful jumper and showed promise for all that she was unable to meet market expectations in a C&D event on her debut in January. Clearly thought capable of better.

Soldi
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: J Mackie
Capri filly. Dam (c59), maiden chaser (stayed 19f), half-sister to useful chaser (stayed 33f) Ace High and useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) Premier Bond out of smart hurdler/fairly useful chase winner up to 2¾m (stayed 25f) Celtic Native. Bred more for stamina than speed.
Timeform
Nathaniel filly. Half-sister to Sea Battle. Dam 8.5f-9.5f winner in USA. Needs a close look in the betting for a yard that sent out a winning newcomer the previous week.

Forecasts

Enya (13/8), Crystal Connemara (5/2), Luna Lux (11/2), True Measure (7/1), Soldi (14/1), It Would Be You (14/1), Imstrawberryblonde (20/1), Ballygorey Ruby (25/1)

Verdict

CRYSTAL CONNEMARA finished her race to good effect at Newbury on her debut in December and having transferred to a good up-and-coming yard, she's fancied to confirm that initial promise and get off the mark at the second time of asking. Luna Lux and Enya, who was held back by inexperience in a juvenile hurdle at Warwick, are both clearly thought capable of better.
